The second DAY at Randolph-Macon was
alike beautiful and bright, and but little
warmer than the first The great event of
the day was the address cf Bishop A. W.
Wilson. He had not expected to make the
address before the two Societies, the Hon.
Jefferson Davis ha9ing been selected to do
this. For a long time Mr. Davis kept the
matter under consideration, hoping his
health would permit his coming, bat, fear
ing it would Doe too much for him, he wrote
very kind letter declining to come. BiSh-
OPP Wilson spoke eXtemporaneously and ell
ooentlv. and no onc who heard would have
supposed that such grand thoughts uttered
in such eloquent language could have been
put together without laborious preparation
For thi, reason his address is not published.
Few men can rise to such high plane Of
thought OF be So much at home at such an
altitude. We trust that the impression
made by his address on The minds of the
young men especially, viii be Us good seed

An OPEN LETTER.

hAGERSTONN, June 10, 1901
Messrs. Editors Of Free Press,
ChGrlestOw2, Vest Va.
GENTLEMEN: We want 10 thank you for pub
fishing paper, through the columns of which,
we can reach many persons with information
of profit and value to them, as well as of i'm
portance to ourselves; we want to say to the
readers of your paper that we would as soon
stop bookkeeping as to stop keeping our name
and business constantly before their eyes
TWENTY-FIVE YEARS EXPERIENCE
in bookkeeping and manufacturing, success
fully increasing each and every year of that
period, has settled the question that the four
leading features with which we started out
and have steadily held fast to, are the main
points to which we owe our success. As we
have never kept them
SECRET
we tell them to your readers
list. Keep the goods the people want.
2nd. Let the people know it.
3rd. Make the prices to please the people.
4th. Give the people all the attention, ac-
commodation, conveniehces and comforts that
arc known to modern bookkeeping.
IF WE HAVEN'T
what the people want there can beno business
between us. If we have what the people want,
At half the price they pay for it elsewhere, and
the people don't know it, it is all the same,
there is no business between us. That's the
reason why we are constantly in the newspa-
pers making every effort.
To PUMP INTO
the readers of your paper the fact that we have
articles they want, and will sell them for as
little money, and nine times out of ten, for
less money than they pay elsewhere, not ex-
cepting the big stores in the big cities, that we
aim to undersell.
EVERYTHING.
That word means something-big that's it
applied to our business, it means that we keep
everything males and females wear from birth
to death, either in ready made garments, or
materials out of which to make them, Except
ladies hats and bonnets.
Our store-room is 80 feet long and 3G feet
wide. 1t is chuck full Of good. There are six
departments of articles for female wear and
six departments of articles for male wear, with
thousands of other necessary articles for the
parlor, sittng-room, dining-room and general
purposes.
II CONCLUSION.
We thank those of your readers who have
